When to expect your Social Security payment for June. See schedule

Social Security payments in June follow a normal schedule, with most payments scheduled to be sent starting June 10.

Social Security – benefits paid mostly to recipients who are older or retired – typically go out on Wednesdays. If your birthday falls between the first and 10th days of the month, your payment is scheduled to arrive on the second Wednesday of the month (for June, that is June 10), according to the Social Security Administration’s calendar.

If you were born between the 11th and 20th, you get paid on the third Wednesday of the month (June 17); those born after the 20th of the month are paid on the fourth Wednesday of the month (June 24), according to the SSA calendar. Social Security recipients who began getting benefits before May 1997 are scheduled to be paid on June 3.

Here's the schedule for Social Security payments in June.

The Social Security Administration’s benefit payments calendar for 2026 and 2027 are available online – and there's a handy calendar below – so you can check the schedules for budgeting purposes.

The check you get in June is technically your Social Security retirement benefits for May, while your June benefits are covered by the check that arrives in July, according to the SSA. Here's the SSA’s schedule:

• Wednesday, June 10: Birth dates between the 1st and 10th of the month.
• Wednesday, June 17: Birth dates between the 11th and 20th of the month.
• Wednesday, June 24: Birth dates between the 21st and 31st of the month.

SSI payment schedule for June and the rest of 2026

Supplemental Security Income (SSI), a program also administered by the Social Security Administration, benefits those with limited or no income or resources, those 65 or older, as well as those who are blind or have a qualifying disability. Also eligible, according to the SSA website: Children with a qualifying disability.

SSI recipients are typically issued payments on the first business day of the month – in June, that is June 1. Occasionally, as in the month of July, recipients may get two checks because the first business day of the following month (in this case August) is on a weekend or holiday.
